Senators hear call for federal cybersecurity restructuring
By Robert Westervelt
Excerpt:
Tom Kellermann vice president of security awareness, at Core Security Technologies testified in front of the Senate committee, criticizing the inefficient support structure within DHS to support the Electronic Crimes Task Force, the Secret Service, the US-CERT and the federal network security branch. Kellermann said the federal network security branch should have the ability to conduct red-teaming exercises or unannounced assessments of civilian agencies to identify vulnerabilities and better earmark IT spending to correct them.
